Can anyone tell me what the second field (1pQcTx) is in a Django session cookie? Google isn't giving me any answers.

sessionid=eyJmb28iOiJiYXIifQ:1pQcTx:UufiSnuPIjNs7zOAJS0UpqnyvRt7KET7BVes0I8LYbA

It appears to be a Base64 encoded four byte string:

"\xD6\x94\x1CO"


If I unpack it as a network byte-order 32bit unsigned int:

3600030799


If I try to convert that to a UNIX timestamp, I get some far off future date:

2084-01-29 16:33:19 -0800


The number does appear to be incrementing on each request, so I'm guessing a `request_id` or timer?
